Tokenization doesn't explain this kind of a mistake. If you ask about "djsjc" you would get the proper answer of 5. The claim that this is performance trade-off does not hold.
I cannot edit the question, but would like to say that I'm extremely impressed by ChatGTP and entire question was an honest curiosity about the limitations of it. It is strange that many responses are about blaming my question and example as just wrong and not about the limitations of the ChatGPT model (admirable anyway).
Our company tracks all the laptops and mobile phones. On onboarding we send them to the programmer and during offboarding we collect them back. Shipping label are always generated by us. At the end of life we sometimes give away devices to their users after resetting them. In case of laptops we mostly have a second life for them as long as they are fully functional - they are used by administration, as a second device for projects as needed, etc. But we do not plan to wind down anytime soon, so this might be a different story with a startup going bankrupt. In particular once the person responsible for administration is no longer with the company ;)
> Also in my employment agreement there is a rule stating that I need my current employer approval before I get a side gig.
I do not think this is lawful. In our agreements we only prohibit doing a work for our competitors or directly competitive work. If you like your employer then do not come up with this with them, but stay informed of your rights.
We did the experiment to check if people are serious about WFH. There is a lot of work to make it happen inside a company. In particular to treat remote people as first class citizens. WFH was also a choice after covid and not necessity.
With a pay cut we are sure people are serious about WFH and not only demanding.
This article doesn't touch much about why plumbing is hard. I'm from Poland so I'm not only IT but also a plumber ;)
Plumbing is hard because it is not forgiving. It's as binary as IT except you can learn the outcome with some delay, once you learnt about a damage caused by a leak. Either you do a pressure tests right or repair can be expensive. And bugfixing is always tricky.
Water also goes down whether you like it or not. Think about all possible leaks inside the shower cabin. Or what is even more impressive that under a pressure the water goes everywhere possible.
Plumbing is similar to electrical engineering, except it usually doesn't kill immidiately (though working with gas is tricky anyway) but requires similar strict mental model to do right.
And when you see a plumber it seems like this person is just a physical worker. So work status misconception must be leveled with money...
I live in Poland. We are recently being recognized as a developed economy most often. Still, we earn 1/3 in dollar terms per Capita compared to the US or Germany.
I think 4 days week would result in people having two jobs regularly. I wonder if the situation is simalar with basic job workers in more advanced economies.
One interesing point is that people in my IT company were willing to put 5-10% of their income in exchange for work from home. But this is IT.
I think that the right way to go is not to reduce the number of hours but just allow people to work 4 days per week with hourly rate intact. This might be a very welcomed option by many people.
Also - signing up for this in the high inflation time might work well instead of raising compensations. So this is a good time to carry such experiments.
Congratulations for your contribution to PM, creating and sharing your toolbox. I wish I will be able to accomplish releasing such work for my process as well at some point in time.
Building a team is always a turn-key project. Tools are a part of it.
Time will tell if this is going to be a widely adopted framework or you are able to inspire several people with your ideas and some of them get adopted in other tools. Even if it only allowed you to better understand your ideas it is worth it. Once again - congratulations and continue inspiring others!
Reed-Solomon is the foundation of today's computing. It is used in data storage (hdd, ssd) and in data transfer protocols. It allows for building of a reliable system on top of an unreliable real life fenomens with desired level of certainty. This is so incredible tech that once implemented we can just forget about it in the higher level abstractions.
My story about ipv6 is from a travel. I connected to a friend's wifi. It worked for some time and then a strange thing happened. I was able to google but I was not able to connect to my company's services. I debugged the cause and it looked like the router received ipv6 address but not an ipv4. There was some tornado going around that might something to it.
This was the first time I felt like being on the ipv6 network. I also wonder why I was not able to access to ipv4 servers, I assume that in India people have no problem accessing ipv4 only networks.
Anyway - this was the first time I had to deal with ipv6 :)
On the business side. One ipv4 costs us $3/mo. We never had any problem with this, didn't feel any business reason to upgrade and in particular we (as most of the companies) do not have any permanent test of ipv6 connectivity going on. So even if this had been setup at some point, we would never notice a regression here.
So - unless our customers started asking for ipv6, government pushed some regulation or the address' prise would go up - I do not think we will do anything about ipv6, like most other companies.
Sweden is going to join NATO soon. So do not expect VPNs operating from their teritory and under their law to be any different then the rest of Europe, as it was before.
If you plan to spend 1M somewhere to expand then buying a report for $1000 seems OK if you only believe the author did some research. In particular a research better than your assistant spending 40h on it which is more than $1000.
It is easy to forget the Snowden moment. Before him releasing the documents, most people in the HN group and in general public would call somebody suggesting such practices of the US goverment as maniac.
Sorry - your argument just do not hold whatever the underlaying question is.
Goverments and most probably the rich can keep the secrets from us, in particular when the topic is complex.
Richard, could you elaborate on the number one question in the comments - what do you mean by the great resignation and how specifically this affected you and the people using your service to find jobs?
We have 500mbps for 50 people in the office in Poland (EU) and it seems fine. Ping under <1ms does the real job (this is a commercial connection). People don't watch movies but download Linux and other software on regular basis. We also do offline backups and this is the biggest bandwidth usage.
Our servers are 1Gbps and the bandwidth is rarely the biggest bottleneck.
I have 200/20 in my own office and the biggest problem is that it works unreliably with Microsoft Teams and Google very often.
PS5 seems to have a 1Gbps interface.
I wonder if 25Gbit has any impact and what is the real stability of it in the Switzerland and the connection to major DCs and services. Entire Internet just doesn't feel stable enough to use that bandwidth but maybe this is a problem here in Poland.
Do you encounter problems with Teams or Meets in your countries?
It is also up to Ukrainians to convince some West Europian nations that sometimes good business is not worth it. It is sad that only blood can change their perspective and each drop of it only slightly... As in an American veterans slogan - freedom is not for free... They fight for entire Europe freedom too.
Dang, sorry. I cannot edit the comment, but if you could replace "Russian" with "Please remember that", than this would make my comment substantial and also side agnostic.
